This might be just to placate their own fans then.

 

"Hold on! Who says we've agreed all of this?"

 

Subtext being they've agreed to 95% of it. Hopefully.


What benefit do they get from it? :lol:

 

Clearly not the first time they’ve done this and a player has left them anyway. Just leads the supporters on.

Lyon want to change the structure of the payment of the €40m, want the instalments differently or something like that. Apparently. Weird thing for Lyon to put out but given their history of doing so for other players who ended up leaving anyway this one is hardly dead.

I didn't say it made any sense. :lol:

 

Maybe it's tied to French culture or something. Soften the blow with some indignant lying.

Apparently the time between their similar statement on Ferland Mendy and Mendy's sale was 8 days. Doesn't mean its off, just means they're saying a deal hasn't been agreed yet.

 

Based on this and the Lyon fans' pessimism of it all, I'm feeling pretty chilled at the moment and quite confident that the move will go through.

FWIW I think this guy looks immense and I'd pay up for him.

 

Diego Carlos I was always unsure of, he looks like he's got red cards and penalties in him plus he is nearly 29. I back the club's judgement, but with reservations as far as he was concerned and once the price started getting silly I think we were absolutely right to walk.

 

This one is different though. Young and looks fantastic. Plus we're absolutely desperate for someone in midfield who is competent and can help us control games.
